of the various schemes compared demonstrate that the visual quality of the
stego-images generated by our scheme is the best. This is the second advan-
tage of our scheme over earlier work. The third advantage of our scheme over
past work is that, based on the check bits embedded, our scheme provides an
effective solution for verifying the reliability of the set of collected shadows
in the context of low computational complexity. Furthermore, experiments
confirm that our proposed scheme is suitable for real-time applications.
